Coffee cart guy
I got a cart and at the start of ev'ry day it's a scene
I got the fix you need, i got the pure caffeine
Sugar for your brain, carbohydrates for your belly
I'm cheaper than your starbucks and i'm
Quicker than your deli (whut!).
The power broker need her early morning brew.
Boxman
Brew!
Coffee cart guy
The office temp, she need a bagel, maybe two.
Boxman
Two!
Coffee cart guy
They need a jolt, or they revolt when they're makin' the bling
For service on the go... I'm the king!
Althea
Who is the man
Who keeps the city movin'?
Who is the guy
Who helps you find your groove, and
Who is the one?
Try doin' what he does
Can't survive without your buzz...
Sanitation worker
See the trash on the tracks
‘n garbage in the station
I'm the warrior of waste
The queen of sanitation
I know you got problems
And i know you got stress
But someone's gotta clean up all your nasty ass mess.
Pizza grease drippin' out of a bag
Rat feces, an' i'm ‘bout to gag
Kids droppin' churros in the burroughs,
But nobody knows where it goes, it's me, yo woah oh oh.
Althea
Who is the queen
Of all the nittay grittay
And who is the lady
Who keeps things lookin' prettay
And who is the one
All along the broadway line
She's the girl who makes it shine.

You're soaked to the bone, your umbrella is failing
The subway? Fuck it! It's my cab you're hailing.
Train conductor
